Well tattoo is off we're sat at a standstill on the motorway, been here for 4 hours nearly, moved about a mile in that time. All I've accomplished is desperately needing a pee and a sunburnt arm. My tattoo artist has kindly said he'll do my tattoo tomorrow instead, which I didn't expect him too since its Sunday.

What caused the delays? An accident? Or everyone making for the beach a la bank holiday stylee? Good of him to oblige though, above and beyond,

An accident, a lorry 3 bike and a few cars involved, 4 and half hours we were at stand still, the accident was just past the junction we needed and the motorway had been closed from there. By time we got off motorway and got to him it would have been half 3 ish, he shuts at 4 and our appointment was suppose 10.30! He got stuck too but further down, he got there at 11.30, and i was talking too him on Facebook haha by 1 and we still hadn't moved he asked if we wanted to go tomorrow instead, which I thought was nice since he doesn't work sundays/mondays

I don't blame you though once we got off the motorway 4 and half hour later, my tattooist had already said he'd do it today so drove home rather than to Stafford, and found if i'd tried going the other way through Newcastle it would have been just as bad cos main road was closed and something had happened on the a500!

Ok so it's attempt 2 at tattoo so don't know what I'll be eating basically! Except tea cos mum will no doubt start me that if I'm not here, other than that though I don't know. Yesterday I was semi good, as in my lunch was basically a hifi bar cos it was all I had on me while in the car. And then we had mcflurry's after tea. Going to slimming world, I'm 10 syns over (add that on to the 8.5 i still haven't trade up from Tuesday), but looking at Mfp i wasn't even at minimum calorie allowance of 1200...(not that I usually go by calories they just interest me) so I'm not gonna worry about it, just gonna hope it doesn't cause a gain.
Breakfast: strawberries, raspberries, melon and banana topped with shape 0% blackberry
Lunch:... None...
Tea: meat and prawn salad
Hea: milk
Heb: peanut hifi bar
Heb: mint hifi bar
Syns: chocolate orange ice lolly 11.5, options mint 2, marshmallows 1

Yay finally made it to the tattoo studio. Waiting for my friend to get done first, his first tattoo so kindly let him go first... Mostly cos I know when roman redoes my foot the look on my face will be enough to put him off having his done. And roman my artist is in an idiotic mood, so good at putting him at ease not, is making him laugh though, so I'll give him points for that haha

Even getting my wrist done right over the veins didn't hurt so much. Though my tattoo artist (last time I had my foot done it was someone else I thought I'd give a try) told me today why it hurts so much there, it's not all cos it's bony but because the skin is harder, on arm/leg the ink is only injected 2 layers down, with the foot the skin isn't as many layers but thinker so it has to be injected further, meaning they have to push down harder. I wanted one on my other foot, but changed my mind after that one.
That all makes sense now no wonder its painful this will be second tattoo i will be having and when I hadn't first everyone said I would have more but I just kept saying no way but getting more done, really want one on my wrist as well

I said I'd only have the one on my leg, if i'd gone for foot first i doubt I'd have had another done it hurt that much, the rest not hurt at all. Wrist hurts a little but it's nothing like the foot one. Technically I now have 5 tattoos, but one was done in 3 parts up side left leg, foot, wrist, ankle/bottom left leg, and 2 which were done separate but join together inside right leg, it was one on inside right leg I've had done today along with my foot being redone. Tattoos are way to addictive.
Wow that's quite a few, and yes they are I like them in places where I can cover them over if need be, so going for neck,wrist. The one on my foot has stars all over it with pink in and I love it

Yeah i have to cover mine in work, can get away with my wrist on show and foot, but keep my legs covered in work as don't think boss would allow me to have them on show.. Not that i've even asked if I can or not haha. One on my foot is a purple star with a lyric from a slash song "you'll never shine alone"

Eventful morning so far. Came into work got a phone call off mum in hysterics cos Tubsie (the rat) was struggling really bad to breathe, the's been really ill for weeks, but was a lot worse this morning. So i was running round the office (as much as my tattoo would let me) trying to find my managers boss cos my manager isnt in to ask if i could go home, to discover he wasnt in, my colleague then told me to just go and make up the time, so got home but was too late, mum had taken her the vets and there was nothing they could do which we kinda knew, she like 4 lumps round her back end which had grown so fast and looked like they have taken her bowels and bladder, but by feel of her the lumps had spread as there was some that appeared to be round her lungs, and she was so very thin, but ate for england. But least shes at peace and not in pain now and back with her sister, and she was old too, just over 2 and they only live up to 2.5 years or so. But now i'm pet less and mum doesn't want anymore
